[9.04] Brightness bar in notifier doesn't move

[barbex]

Minor problem in Ubuntu 9.04:

The Brightness hotkey adjusts the brightness just fine but the notifier bar remains dark for the most time. Only at the most brightness of the screen the bar moves to the right for three millimetres.

Changing the Icon set from "Clear" to "Human" seems to have solved the problem for now.

No, have to correct my above statement, the bar now seems to be stuck at 4 millimetres permanently.
